San Mateo County Sheriff's captains call for embattled Sheriff Corpus to step down
Briefly

The email, dated Monday, Nov. 18, does not explain the vote of no confidence by the captains. However, it was sent the same day state and congressional lawmakers called for Corpus to step down over an explosive audit alleging widespread misconduct by her and department leadership.
Retired Judge LaDoris Cordell, who authored the report released last week, described the Corpus administration saying, 'Lies, secrecy, intimidation, retaliation, conflict of interest, and abuses of authority are the hallmarks of the Corpus administration.'
Corpus has vehemently denied the accusations, describing the report and calls for her resignation as part of a politically motivated coup organized by those threatened by her efforts to reform the department.
In a statement provided to the Bay Area News Group, Corpus said, 'While I am disappointed with the comments of the Captains, I am committed to moving forward, improving our workplace environment, and healing relationships.'
